In the story called "let the colors run," by Ron Suskind, he really moves the students that he teaches to be better in life.  He took this one poem written by a student and loved it.  He made sure that the student would strive for bigger and better things, rather than just doing the minimal work possible.  I thought it was very moving that he cared so much for a student that he would take the time to make sure that he understands that his life matters in life.  Not every student gets that from any professor in college.  I also thought that the poem was very moving.  It was very intense, and I understood where the writer was coming from.  I like the line Siskind wrote "The key is to put your outrage in a place where you can get at it when you need to..."  I typically like this quote because to me, this professor is saying to follow your dreams, which any student at college should be doing.
